Intro
We at Paperlike are in need of a talented person to beautify all the things. Some would say we need an art director or a front-end designer. Or maybe a brand designer? An in-house artist? All we know is this: there's a lot of areas in need of aesthetic improvements such as our blog, graphic assets, and brand design. That's why we're searching for you: someone who can wear a lot of hats and has an eye for the beautiful, plus the grit to get shit done.
Why Paperlike?
- Leave your mark on the company: the team at Paperlike is small, which means each of us plays a critical role that affects the company's direction. As the design brain at Paperlike, your impact will be seen for years to come and future designers here will follow your lead.
- Join an incredible team: besides the fact that our team is highly talented, we also genuinely care about one another's well-being. We're hard-working but relaxed; results-oriented, yet curious explorers at the same time.
- Work remotely with a flexible schedule: we're a 100% remote company, with employees and contractors all over the globe. You'll have the freedom to travel, work, and explore your passions whenever and wherever you like.
- Expand your talents: roles at Paperlike aren't set in stone. You'll have the freedom to learn new skills and tools, plus collaborate on projects that go beyond your typical design gig.
- We're profitable and investment-free: Paperlike is profitable since the beginning (2017), and we've never taken any equity investment. All our ventures are funded through product sales, and we have a high affinity towards crowdfunding. That means no external pressure to reach unrealistic numbers. No need to endlessly grow. We focus on the products we're good at and that we enjoy.
